Answer:
The divorced woman has a waiting period, and the woman whose husband has died has a waiting period. The divorced woman observes a waiting period of three menstrual cycles if she menstruates. If she does not menstruate due to old age or youth, or if she does not menstruate due to youth or menopause, then she observes a waiting period of three months.
